All the seemingly insane moves on draft day make sense now!
They got their man.

The Bruins roster has turned into Saved By The Bell, because it has Zac and Kelly and Torey and it's not really funny anymore.

A good sign of a team going into tank mode. Trade for a face puncher to entertain the crowd through a tough year.

Larry Brooks: Anonymous Asst. GM said the third round pick was a loner and never got along with anyone, a real "uppity" kid. #ThirdRoundSmearCampaign

So the B's fired Chia and replaced him with this guy??? If the replacement is this bad, I can't wait to see more of the blunders Chia is going to make!

I thought Sweeney was just drunk at the draft but it appears he may have gone on quite the bender...

Should have thrown Bollig into the Hamilton trade, might have been able to keep that extra 2nd.

Why would you trade a third for Rinaldo when you get a guy like Colton Orr, Steve Downie, John Scott, Frazer McLaren, Brian McGrattan, etc... for free in two days?
Sure, Rinaldo is 25, but he's not the type of the guy where I go "wow, I sure am glad we get him in his prime".

This is quite the self immolation by Sweeney. Is he trying to get fired so he can scout for the Mets?

Sure, Rinaldo isn't as good at fighting and throws more dirty hits than any of those guys. Except Downie I guess.
